Pretty to growing heuchera. I think in danger of an addiction. I have some 'caramel' that I got last year. They are going from their caramel color to more plain yellow- even chartreuse. The same thing happened towards the end of last summer, then the new growth this spring was nicely caramel colored..until about 2 weeks ago. Do they just get greener as the leaves age? Do they tend to go green if they're getting too much sun? Once the greening has happened, if I move them, or make whatever adjustment someone can recommend, will the existing leaves 'pinken' again, or would the more desired color only be on the new growth? They seem otherwise very healthy and have lots of new leaves-those are all bright coral. Thanks for any help!!
